Simplified Meaning:
Learning something new can be more thrilling and satisfying than staying in the dark. Imagine you're trying to fix a broken toy. If you just sit and stare at it, wondering what's inside, you might feel curious and amazed for a while, but you won't be able to fix it. On the other hand, if you take the toy apart and learn how it works, you'll not only fix it but also feel proud and excited about what you've discovered. Knowing how things work can give you power and a deeper appreciation for the world. So, instead of just being amazed by something you don't understand, take the time to learn about it. This way, you gain knowledge and can truly appreciate its beauty and complexity.
